Freck, the creator of buildable and long-wearing faux freckle cosmetics, is expanding its product family with Freck Noir, which was specifically created for mid to dark skin tones. The product is designed to be applied "in constellations" all over the face to create flattering freckles. After a pleasing pattern of dots have been created across the face, the brand recommends tapping them out to reduce the intensity and soften the dots for a natural look that's visible on darker skin tones.
This new product joins Freck OG and Freck XL, offering a deeper and cooler tone in the same favorite formula as before. The all-new Freck Noir is touted by the brand as "the ultra-pigmented sister to FRECK OG develops instantly, without any development time."
